Coming from a diverse set of backgrounds, experiences, beliefs and orientations, we are determined to build a more united country with good jobs, equal justice, and quality public education for all.

southbeach1500 saidSounds like another lefty liberal group to me that, among other things, wants amnesty for the tens of millions of illegal immigrants here in the USA:

We are the new immigrants, raising our children in the torchlight of the Statue of Liberty, while confronting the shadows that are bigotry and mass deportations.

They actually made a mistake in the above. They should have written:

We are the new illegal immigrants, raising our children in the torchlight of the Statue of Liberty, while confronting the shadows that are bigotry and mass deportations.

And this is hilarious. On the one hand they say:

We are conservatives and moderates, progressives and liberals, non-believers and people of deep faith, united by escalating assaults on our reason, our environment, and our rights.

And then they state:

And most importantly – from ensuring women are treated fairly at work, to expanding health care coverage for millions– we have been victorious whenever we worked together. We have proven the only thing we need to succeed is each other.

What's crazy is that she acts as though the LGBT community and blacks and latinos are somehow allies on one side and the white people are on another. Percentage wise, caucasians are more supportive of gays and gay rights than both blacks and latinos as a whole in both the USA and abroad. All you have to do is look at Africa, where there's not only discrimination but outright death.

Furthermore, there's no evidence to suggest, although it may be an attribute worth appreciating by some, that diversity defined by skin color is what makes a country great or more prosperous.

Also, I love how she acts as though enforcement of immigration laws are the acts of irrational hate towards immigrants when it is a budget and welfare sustainability issue and not anything to do with discrimination based on color or orientation.
